Olympia 3 is designed for use at large events with hundreds of positions in a single stadium or across multiple venues, as well as in smaller installations where the Commentator Unit works autonomously or linked to an Intercom System.

Control and Intercom Software. Allows commentators to be assisted without dedicated hardware
Local I/O allowing connection of wireless systems for interviews, summed to any main I/O of the Unit
4 solid-state ID message memories and tone generator assignable to any output bus to facilitate setup and audio level alignment
Processing, equalisation, filters and automix functions ensure a perfect signal from the source

OLYMPIA 3 CU CONTROL
Application that allows real-time CU control, with a screen similar to the CU surface, including intercom and VU meters (plus presence indicators when the application is minimised).
OLYMPIA 3 CU CONTROL provides remote control of positions, including parallel control of the unit controls, for use by non-trained announcers.
Technical Details
General Features
- Internal switch with 3 external IP interfaces on Ethernet port.
- 1 Gb/100 Mbps. RJ45 connector. One of these supports PoE+ power. Firmware protection and configuration of unused Ethernet ports to prevent misuse as a system gateway.
- Standard test signals (tone and pink noise).
- 2 line identifiers.
- External delay and CU linking in combination with BC2000D and Conexia routers.
- Replay function for the last intercom message received.
- Front panel interface with keypads, LED signalling and encoders. 3 OLED graphic displays. 3 LED VU meters on the front.
